ToddW Report post Posted November 17, 2023 I tried to order a dummy phone off ebay but it got cancelled. Looked in etsy, Amazon and ebay.. lots of iPhone 14’s but the buttons are different.. I want to wet mold a case.. about to plastic wrap it but its an expensive phone.. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Mablung Report post Posted November 17, 2023 Conceivably, this is the kind of thing that could be 3D printed. I'm interested in finding a form as well, though, as I plan to upgrade to the Plus soon and would like to make a good leather case. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Handstitched Report post Posted November 17, 2023 Get dimensions of phone, make a wood mold, simple. Or, if it one of those thin things that break easy, , perhaps one or two pieces of leather thick enough to match dimensions will do the same . I've been making phone & knife templates for years. I have a whole box of them now. HS Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

HS What he said ^^^^^ I make my own gun molds sometimes . . . have a box of all sorts of little molds I've made down thru the years . . . and besides that . . . you do not want to even think about molding it so close that you pick up the molding on the buttons.

I like to make the cases so its easy for the phone to slide in and out easy and so it doesn't interfere with controls on the side . Rather be a little bit loose than too tight.

chiefjason Report post Posted November 21, 2023 It's water resistant to 6 meters. Wet molding should not be an issue. Or you can buy a thin hard case and mold with that. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
